Answer would be x = 1/3 and y = 5
Let s represent the measure of the second angle.
The measure of the first angle is 15° less than the second, so we can represent the first angle by (s-15).
The measure of the third angle is 45° more than half the second, so we can represent the third angle by (45+(s/2)).
The sum of these angles is 180°, so we can represent the sum as
... (s-15) + s + (45+s/2) = 180
Collecting terms, we have
... 2.5s +30 = 180
... 2.5s = 150 . . . . . . subtract 30
... s = 150/2.5 = 60 . . . . divide by the coefficient of s
The first angle is 60-15 = 45.
The second angle is 60.
The third angle is 45+60/2 = 75.
_____
<u>Check</u>
The sum of the three angles is 45 +60 +75 = 180.
Answer:
-2 < x < 7
Step-by-step explanation:
And implies intersection
x can be anything greater than -2 but it also has to be less than 7.
Therefore between -2 and 7
The equation that best represents the total earnings for the salesman is letter c which is e=40,000+200 xc
It is because, in order to get the full earnings, you have to add the base salary to the commission that the salesman receives. Whereas, the $40,000 is attached to the commission where the $200 is multiplied to c (every car the salesman sells
